My Immortal
Chapter One: Broken
Raven sat on the roof of Titans' Tower, staring out at the water that surrounded their small island. She had originally come out to meditate but her mind drifted to an issue she was having trouble with: Beast Boy. He was on her mind constantly.
It had only been a week since the Teen Titans had found out about Terra's betrayal and Beast Boy had not taken it too well. He had stayed in his room for many weeks without eating and Raven had feared he was going to die. Then, Terra had gone against them again, this time trying to rid of them for good. But of course she had not succeeded but just when she thought she was making the right choice, yet again she seemed to make the wrong one.
Sure she had stopped Slade, but then she had killed herself which left Beast Boy in a turbulent sea of emotions. He had loved her and she had left him. They were still trying to find a way to reverse the effects but Raven knew that it was not likely that they would. Though she had not liked Terra, Raven wished that she could just bring the girl back. Terra had meant everything to Beast Boy and now, without her, he was nothing. He was not the person he used to be and Raven hated Terra for it. Now there were no more jokes, no more attempts to cheer up people. There was just nothing.
How could she do this to him? She had not right to after all the things he had already been through! Everyday it seemed he got worse and worse. Raven often found herself crying at the sight of him. Sure he had tried to make it seem as though everything were fine, but Raven knew better. He no longer had the enthusiasm that he used to possess. He was now like Raven, hiding himself from the world in fear that he might show something.
Raven had wished that she could turn back time. Then she would go back to when Terra was there and when Beast Boy was happy. Sure, he had annoyed her often with his jokes and smart remarks but only now did Raven realize how much she missed them. Raven had tried to make him smile a few times but seeing that she wasn't exactly one for jokes, she never succeeded. That only hurt her more.
Not long after seeing Beast Boy in his depressed state had raven realized that she cared for Beast Boy...in more ways than just a friend. She realized that she loved him and how much it meant to her to see him happy.
Raven smiled as she remembered the time that Beast boy and Cyborg had gone into Nevermore. Some of her emotions had hinted at her liking him though she had asked them repeatedly to try not to. Suddenly, the back door to the roof slammed shut. Raven turned around.
"Uh, we were just wondering if you wanted to come out for pizza with us" Robin said.
"Is Beast Boy coming" she asked, a hopeful feeling creeping into her.
"Star tried to talk to him, but he wouldn't open his door" Robin said looking down at the ground.
"Oh" Raven said.
"So, you coming" Robin asked running a hand through his hair.
"I think I'll pass this time" she said turning her attention back to the water.
"Ok, we'll bring you somethin' back, alright"
Raven nodded and Robin went back in the house. Raven waited until she heard the T-Car leave to go back inside. She planned on trying to talk to Beast Boy.
